Would love to get some opinions on the latest Penguin 2.0 update and how on earth the #1 rank is #1 ranked, very, very peculiar...
Any and all theories welcomed and appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Micheal,
I am going to have to throw my theory/observation out in this case! Just had a quick look at ahrefs and looks like these guys have been doing some major link building in the last couple of weeks (with main keyphrase brisbane seo).

Just too soon to show up in the moz metrics. You wouldn't think this kind of thing would keep them in the top spot for too long, but there you go. **Note to self to check out a couple of the other cases I had seen for very recent funny stuff!

Thanks Lynn for your theory.
I must admit that was one of the things I possibly thought, but again it is so hard to quantify. Surely there are 100's of no opitmisation type sites that could fall into this category, so why this one?
In regards to Penguin it has happened for numerous AU related searches on May 24 that I have been tracking, this is just one example. I do know there have been other algorithm updates in AU potentially too though so may be a combo.

Well, here is a theory, not going to say a completely thought out one!
I have seen quite a few examples like this in industries which could be said to have traditionally attracted seo over-optimisation (specifically travel and gaming related). Almost seems like even the hint of optimization (more than a handful of exact match links) is enough to get a site thrown down the rankings and sites that are really not particularly optimised on site, but definitely do not have much of an optimised link profile are being pushed up to the top.
Of course SEO is another industry that attracts this kind of stuff, although your specific search has a couple of pretty optimised sites in the 2-10 positions, so surely it depends on a whole range of factors.
Not 100% sure this is even exactly related to the recent penguin 2.0 update since I was seeing some flux on various rankings from the first week of May (from Europe).
Actually, thats not much of a theory at all, just an observation!
Maybe Dr Pete will chime in... seems something up his alley......

What would be the best course of action to nullify negative effects of our website's content being duplicated (Negative SEO)
Hello, everyone About 3 months ago I joined a company that deals in manufacturing of transportation and packaging items. Once I started digging into the website, I noticed that a lot of their content was "plagiarized". I use quotes as it really was not, but they seemed to have been hit with a negative SEO campaign last year where their content was taken and being posted across at least 15 different websites. Literally every page on their website had the same problem - and some content was even company specific (going as far as using the company's very unique name). In all my years of working in SEO and marketing I have never seen something at the scale of this. Sure, there are always spammy links here and there, but this seems very deliberate. In fact, some of the duplicate content was posted on legitimate websites that may have been hacked/compromised (some examples include charity websites. I am wondering if there is anything that I can do besides contacting the webmasters of these websites and nicely asking for a removal of the content? Or does this duplicate content not hold as much weight anymore as it used to. Especially since our content was posted years before the duplicate content started popping up. Thanks,

More or Less pages helps in SEO?
Hi all, I have gone through some articles where less pages are suggested and they claim that they will be favoured by Google. I'm not sure as with limited pages, we can only target limited keywords. There might be threat from Google in-terms of doorway pages for more pages. But one of our competitor has many pages like dedicated page for every keyword. And their website ranks high and good for all keywords. I can see three pages created with differnet phrases for same on keyword. If less pages are good, how come this works for our competitor? Thanks

Ranking without SEO?
We have a client that we've been doing white-hat SEO for for over 3 years and they've always been number 1 in Google for all their targeted keywords. This year, their competition has been ranking above them and our client has been pushed towards the bottom of the first page. After thorough research, we discovered that this competitor is doing no SEO at all, just regular PR which our client is also doing. Our client is even spending money in Adwords and their competition isn't. Can anyone explain how a website that does zero SEO can magically be ranked at the top now and above our competitor who we're doing everything possible for?

SEO Hosting and many dummy blog, is it still works ?
Hi, I want to keep update with the latest trend of SEO,
White Hat / Black Hat SEO | | theconversion
in one side, we know that google now more focus on-page rather than off-page,
the Question is, when we handle a big size of company, that we can't change easily,
the content inside the web, this will become a problem. do you have any suggestion about
this matters ? Second question, I still keep my SEO team to do this, 5 people, 1 people hold 7 .com website,
that hosted all in SEO hosting with different IP Class C, and 7 social network site. Everytime they
are posting a unique article and put link that targetting the money site. My Question is, is it still
work to do all of this ? so at the end of month, we have almost 70links that going to money site,
with composition of link, 50% exact match text, 30 partial match text, and 20% direct www. link today, it is still working, all the site that we optimize, going up to page 1. But I want to know about
the future, or at least in your country that more competitive rather than in my country (Indonesia),
what do you do for backlink that created from your farm. I also heard that, SEO Hosting is not use, the things that works is, when u posting an article, make
sure u post from unique IP address, not from same computer. Please give me enlightment, I truly open for discussion, thanks a lot0 -
Mobile SEO best practices : Should my mobile website be located at m.domain.com or domain.com/mobile?
I'd like to know if there's any difference between using m.domain.com/pages or domain.com/mobile/pages for a mobile website? Which one is better? Why? Does Google treat the two differently? As you can see, I'm new to this! This is my first time working on a mobile website, so any links/resources would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
